Absolutely - it shouldn't be too hard.
BTW, I thought of another solution - since Apache supports IPv6 and Webmin
can be run behind an Apache proxy, you could access it that way too.

Thanks for the info. One last question - would you expect to provide IPv6
support once Perl gets updated appropriately?

Does Webmin support connections over IPv6? I'm using 1.5 on an Ubuntu 9.1
box, and I can't connect to https://host.domain.tld:10000 using IPv6, but
IPv4 works just fine. When I go into the Webmin configuration module and
"Ports and Addresses", it's supposed to be listening on any address (Bind
to IP address>Any address). If I try to put in an IPv6 address there to
force webmin to listen on that IP, I receive the message "Failed to change
address : '' is not a valid IP address to bind to".
So, does Webmin not support IPv6 as of yet?
Sorry, no .. the main reason is that there doesn't appear to be support
for IPv6 in the core Perl networking functions.
You could hack around this by using xinetd or something similar to forward
IPv6 port 10000 to IPv4 port 10000 though.
